Surround Processing Modes
Digital based audio/video source components transmit their audio signals in either Analog,
Pulse Code Modulation (PCM), Dolby Digital, or DTS. Your AVC-1800 automatically detects
the type of digital signal present at the chosen digital input. The signal is then decoded based
upon the surround processing mode you have selected for the audio/video (1-4) or audio only
(1-3) input. Following is how the AVC-1800 decodes the incoming signal:
